I watched the match highlights twice this morning because I enjoyed them so much. And I don‘t even dislike any US players, and also don‘t care too much about Belgium as a team.

In our recently submitted grants we had to change “traumatic brain injury” to “concussive brain injury” and “male and female mice” to “male and non-male mice” because traumatic and female are now verboten words that can get our grants killed. It’s insanity.

Even the smallest contamination on an NMR tube can significantly impact your results. A dirty sample can lead to: - Poor shimming and reduced sensitivity - Potential contamination of the probe, requiring time-consuming maintenance #NMRchat #ChemSky #RealTimeChem

Illustration of the effect of dirty NMR tubes. The top shows a clean NMR tube and the corresponding "shim-map", which is very homogeneous. The bottom shows an NMR tube with a small black marker dot. The corresponding shim map shows a clear perturbation of several Hz around the dot.

A large male Asian lion lies sedated on its belly, on the platform that takes it head-first into the circular gantry of a CT machine. Its black-tipped tail faces the camera, with its big black paw pads. The lion has numerous straps securing it, and several medical cables (one goes to an IV bag on a rack). There's a radiographer in a green scrub-shirt and blue trousers headed around the machine to the left, and another person on the right side, both dwarfed by the lion.
